English Stresses Grammar, Literature .4 in ., .. Q-PM Miss Boehl washes o flat for one of her productions. Mrs. Bassel devotes all of her spare time to her son, Dabney. A vast majority of students today fail to re- alize the importance of good Englishg however, it is among the most essential subjects a student is required to study. Correct English is of vital importance in every walk of life. A solid foun- dation should be established in English while a person is young and throughout his life he should continue to broaden his knowledge of it. Before graduating a student must take six semesters of English. For students preparing to go to college English VII and VIII are also available. Courses in public speaking and dramatics are also included on the growing list of fascinating subjects offered to Brackites. Many enjoyable, as well as long and tiresome, hours are spent by students who find the world of dramatics intri- guing. In the study of dramatics a student dis- covers the secrets which enable actors to become com letely different characters while on stage. Public speaking trains students to s eak before an audience with expression and selliconfidence. Mrs. Fields checks her mailbox to see what's up.
